I was available after school today for students who needed help or wanted to retake their Linear Systems test.

Today students worked on reviewing for their upcoming Quadratics Unit Test. Students were given the option of using their time to work on their review packets OR work on their Khan Academy Assignments.

Khan is due by 11:59 pm 12/19 and the review packet is due on Wed, 12/20.

Quadratics Unit Test Schedule:

• Wednesday, December 20: Non-(Graphing) Calculator Section
  • If students have their own 4-function or scientific calculators (ie ones that do not have graphing capabilities) they may use it if they wish. I do not have any class sets that I am able to provide.
• Thursday, December 21: Calculator Section
  • A graphing calculator will be provided

Extra Help:

I am available every day before school and after school on Tuesday if you need extra help preparing for the Quadratics Unit Test.

Students wishing to retake the Linear Systems Test are still able to do so any day before school or after school on Tuesday.
